I made two trips last week:
A short five mile round trip with some good jacks and nasty seas

...or a twenty two mile trek in search of fish through empty waters on a nice day ...but I didn't come home empty handed!

Holy Cr@p!  22 miles of paddling! On my AK trip next week most of my yak fishing will be in Port Saint Nicholas Bay out in front of the Lodge. It's only half a mile to the halibut and a mile or so across to the rockfish and lingcod and has a gravel road around to the other side. I was thinking it would be so much easier to  put the kayak on top of the Subaru and drive around to launch from the opposite side than paddle the mile over to it. Now I feel like a total wimp. :-[

Locally, all my kayak fishing is in 3-5 acre ponds.  So the fish I catch pull me around more than I have to paddle.

Yeah the first vid was a sloppy day but I needed some water time. I traded two of the jacks for a bunch of Ribbonfish, so I have bait for the next five or six trips. Now I can do an offshore trip for $5, lol!
